cannot upgrade the angel eyes. It's built-in. Do you have halogen headlamps? If so, I may be able to push a little more voltage through.

Any brighter will look terrible. We already tested it on a new M3 and it was so bright, you couldn't even see the rings anymore. He had to tint the headlights because they were so bright. It was that bad.

This is Disappointing news. Yes I have halogen (never again). Did you pull out the headlight? what if the bulb blows out? you cant replace?

Thanks for the info.

Found this on ebay My link
If there is a replacement LED bulb for the AE, I presume there should be a way of replacing these. Has anyone managed to get it replaced?
